flag Study finds electrical muscle stimulation boosts muscle gain and strength when added to resistance training.

flag A study from the University of Texas at El Paso found that using electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) alongside resistance training boosts muscle mass and strength more than resistance training alone. flag The research, published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology, analyzed over a dozen studies and showed better results with training periods ranging from two to 16 weeks. flag EMS uses electrical currents to stimulate muscles, aiding traditional exercises like bench presses and squats, and may also help regulate blood glucose levels and reduce type 2 diabetes risk.
